Product Description

Product Description

Bringing together over 220 genuine recipes, 'World Vegetarian Classics' is the definitive collection of vegetarian cuisine from around the globe. Organized by area, every continent is featured, and all the recipes are not just classic dishes of each area, adapted for the vegetarian, but historically vegetarian in their own right. Sensible to the difficulties facing the modern cook - an inability to source unusual ingredients or equipment and a lack of knowledge of traditional cooking methods - Celia has adapted each recipe so that it is suitable for today's kitchens. Feature spreads which explain the properties of some of the more exotic ingredients for each area, and interviews with internationally recognized experts where they share their tips on shopping and cooking, combine to make this book unique. Lavishly photographed and written with wit and enthusiasm, this sumptuous vegetarian recipe collection is set to become a classic, and core stock on the discerning cook's bookshelf.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great vegetarian cookbook, 24 Mar 2006
This is a great book full of interesting recipes - I've never before bought a cookbook where I wanted to make over half the recipes. Celia is brilliant, and although I tend to tinker with the recipes (I always do ..), they are mostly very simple, easy to follow, and often take very little time to prepare. The recipes are interesting enough to serve to non-vegetarians - my guests never complain about a lack of meat when I serve these sorts of exotic dishes.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing Design, 31 Dec 2007
By K. Johnston (Hove, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If like me you enjoy your cookbooks on both an aesthetic AND culinary level, this book is somewhat of a disappointment. I love Celia's other titles: New Vegetarian and Entertaining... and my partner and I are also big fans of her gourmet tours in London and her workshops at Books for Cooks. It's such a shame about this title - it has an incredible and delectable range of recipes, but I really object to the design, which is slightly dated and clumsy. It could have been a really beautiful, clean, crisp design which would do justice to the photography. Hopefully, in paperback, they'll revise with a new cover too.

3.0 out of 5 stars First catch your plantain..., 17 April 2007
Having had a great deal of use from the previous two volumes by Celia Brooks Brown, I read this with eager anticipation. I have, however, cooked relatively few recipes from this book, since many of them seem to require ingredients that, whilst probably available in London, are hard to source in a small town. The recipes I have used have been fine, and the book is well laid out and nicely presented. I can't shake off the feeling, however, that this book was over-ambitious, and that the author was trying too hard to produce a 'classic'.
